- kanonieer 5y agoIt's funnier for Magic: The Gathering players. Seeing a sentence like "grist employee" is hilarious. See: https://mtg.fandom.com/wiki/Grist https://mtg.fandom.com/wiki/Grist
- mackrevinack 5y agoi wouldn't be mad about the name either. it doesn't really roll of the tongue and i can see it being misheard easily when using it in conversation. something like gridbase, gridrow, gridtable, gridlist, would have been better i think, even though they are very generic sounding
- i386 5y agoI'm not mad about the name. It's just an ugly one.
